Bret HarIe's Way.

1t will be observed by those who are
solicitous about the present tendencies
of American tiction, as manifested in
the work of school which is just now
somewhat prolific, that here is dlstin-
guished American novelist who has i'm
agination, and is not afraid to use it,;
who allows his people to develop their
own characters and words; who doesn't
travel through miles of explanation,
criticism, and analysis in order to
achieve inches of narrative movements;
who doesn't mount the platform, like
the man with long stick at the piano.

who had rather use one word than forty,
if he has the right word handy; and
who had rather stop short than become
tedious.
What in the name of common sense is
the use in subjecting the people of fc-

One lived the Other Died.

a woman formerly our slave is now
our cook About eighteen months ago
she became ackly and had a cough and
was confined to bed, and it was thought
that she had consumption. The treat
ment by physicians failed to give relief.
In December, 1884,a node or knot the
size Of q goose egg formed just above the
pit of the stomach, which when lanced
dischared matter for or 8 months.
One of these also formed under her arm,
and three on her back, which discharged
matter for consid erable time. For six
months of this time she was confined
to the house, and most of the time IN
bed. The stomach often refused food.
by rejecting what she had eaten. She
used great deal of medicine, but failed
to be cured. I bought one bottle of
your B. BxB. (made in Atlanta, Ga i
more, and she continued to improve
and in two months time her cough had
ceased, her constitution strengthened
appetite and digestion good, all dis
charges ceased, nodes orAknots disap-
peared and she went to work apparently
healthy and fattened up greatly.
This woman had married sister of
near same age who was affected in pre-
cisely the same way and about the same
time. She had node or knot on pit of
stomach, back, etc. She did not take
any b. B. b. and the node on her
stomach ate through to the cavity. She
continued on the decline and wasted
away, and finally died.
These were two terrible cases of blood
poison, one used B. b. b. and was
speedily cured the other did not use it
and died. It is most assuredly Almost

How Empires Have Been Founded.

There are few facts, says the Pail
Mall Gazette, that impress the imagina.
ton more in beginning the study oil
physical science than the rain of the
skeletons or shells which continue cease.

ocean depths. Out of these tiny relics
of marine life is formed the chalky ooze
of the ocean bed, makers of the marble
that is to be. The young princes in
The Cruise of the Bacchante, speaking
of our island empire in the West Indies,
which some propose we should abandon,
ask Indignantly, WAS it for this that
these islands were taken and retaken,
TIL every gully and every foot Of the
ocean-bed holds the skeleton of an En-
glishmanp" 1t is striking figure and
suggestive. What a rain of English
skeletons through these purple seas,
skeletons which, hardening in time like
the shelly ooze of the ocean floor, form
the material of empire! 1t is greet
thought and a true one, although grim
enough in its way. All empires are
founded on skeletons. Whoever wishes
to rear throne must use corpes as its
foundation. The eastern conquerors
who reared pyramids of skulls but
roughly illustrated the universal truth.
He who would attain to supreme domin-
ion must first find men who are willing
to allow their carcasses to be used as
building material. The noble Russian
soldiers who were marched into the bog
in which they sank overhead merely in
order that those who came after might
find the way paved with tine crowns Of
their dead companions heads were but
offering in a most horrible fashion the
same sacrifice which all men must offer
who would found empire, or, indeed, do
anything else of permanent and solid
worth. The price of liberty, as Of en-
pire, is life. And he who is not willing
In case of need to lose his life will never
attain to those things which alone make
life worth living.

A Wonderful Miik-White Snake.

A milk white snake, six feet long, was
captured near Jewell postofice, writes a
Darnale, Nd, correspondent, where it
is now kept in box. It has head
like a black snake, with bright, glisten-
ing eyes, a slim, tapering neck, the
body about an inch in diameter in the
largest part. It does not seem to be
much frightened by persons around it,
but shows some anxiety at times to
make its escape by raising its head to
the opening in the Stats on the top of
the box. 1t does not show a vicious
disposition, as it only moves about
when touched by switch and puts out
its tongue. 1t has been known to be in
the neighborhood for some years, and
last summer party went out to capture
it, but it made it's escape by hiding I'M
der the roots of trees, where they could
not get at it.
